Check the Date Format

Helllo,
I have a form with an element selector to date on this subject. If the user does not use the date picker and inserts the date / time text, I must be able to verify that the user
entered date / time in the correct format. Is it possible in the apex to validate the format of the date / time is entered, short of creating a validation function that parses the date / hour in the month, day, year, hour, minutes and AM/PM? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • How canI change the date format of dd/mm/yyyy to dd/mm/yyyy in filed?

    I just got and try things my new Alcatel fire E with FirefoxOS (just updated) 2.0.0.0.

    It is usual in most operating systems to be able to customize the date and time (among others). After a few hours of unsuccessful fiddling with the phone and checking the various forums, I came to the conclusion that it is currently not possible on my phone with this version of FirefoxOS. Or did I just miss something?

    Hi achim_59,

    I understand that you want to set the date format to display the jj/mm/aaaa on your Firefox OS device.

    This feature has been implemented in Firefox OS v2.1. Unfortunately, this feature is not available in v2.0:

    For other questions about the updates and implementation of your specific device features, please contact your device manufacturer, Alcatel.

  • Can I change the date format day/United States (month day year) in the United Kingdom (date month year)?

    When I consult databases via Firefox, the format of date/day is set at: day, month, year (AMERICAN style), while I need, day, month, year, I work in the United Kingdom and the 'bad' format is VERY confusing and could lead to errors and mistakes. IE has that format, but I don't want to return to using that.

    You use the English (United States) version of Firefox ESR 24.3.0. You can download the English version of (British) below:

    1. under Options - content - language, make sure that English/United Kingdom [en-us] is located at the top of the list.

    2. in the Windows Control Panel category, region and language, make sure that the short Date is set at your convenience.

    You can check the date and time at the library of Firefox, bookmarks category format. Press Ctrl + Shift + B to open it, and then note the dates in the added to the right column.

  • How to get the Date format for a specific date?

    May be it is inept to ask, but I'm aware of the Date.
    which appear on client - it's just that the average customer treats the date.
    Right?
    So what happens if a need to check the format to set the server to date.
    Or need to write common code indicating the date format
    on the server, it is running.

    This requirement came into my mind while using the extract method.
    Actually, I wanted to date of manipulation of the side back end.
    Let's say the time is 04:12:2012 03:05:16.
    Now, if I add 100 minutes, the result will be.
    04:12:2012 04:45:16.

    It's the requirement. Maybe there may be best way to do
    but it's the way I think now.

    Thank you.

    It's something that you don't need to know:
    you have a string containing a date or timestamp, and then he must know the format of this string and not the fornat date used by the server.
    or you have a date or timestamp, and then you can add minutes to it without knowing the format as described before.

  • Options for PDF export - how to change the date format?

    Hello


    I use Adobe InDesign CC June 2015 on Windows 7.

    When I export a PDF file to print, the date and the format is ' mm/dd/yyyy' (e.g. 2015/12/11 15:14:21) but I want to be ' dd/mm/yyyy' (for example 12/11/2015-15:14:21).

    I know it's possible because my colleagues have this date format on their PDFs.

    Do you know where I can change this option?


    Thanks in advance,

  • varchar2 to the date format conversion

    I have converted the formats of date several times, but for some reason, I get an error invalid number when you try to convert a varchar2 column. I tried the to_char and to_date function and I get the same result. The column is a date and it is formatted like ME-DD-YYYY, but I want to change it to DD/MM/YYYY. My query is below:

    Select to_date('fccpdate','MM/DD/YYYY')
    of cc_class_scmast_v

    When I try to_date I get this:

    If the column is a DATE, then it has the same format that all DATEs, which is nothing like 'DD-MON-YYYY '. Formats like which apply only to chains.
    Conversely, if it is in the format "DD-MON-YYY", then it is a string, not a DATE.

    but I want to change to DD/MM/YYYY. My query is below:

    Select to_date('fccpdate','MM/DD/YYYY')
    of cc_class_scmast_v

    To_date (x, "MM/DD/YYYY") tries to convert the string x in a DATE. Let's say it starts by taking the first 2 characters of x, for the month. The first 2 characters of 'fccpdate' are "fc", which is not a valid number (at least not in base 10), not to mention a number from 1 to 12, TO_DATE so will raise an error.

    When I try to_date I get this:

    Error from the 1 in the command line:
    Select TO_DATE ('fccpdate ',' MON-DD-YYYY "") of cc_class_scmast_v, where fccpdate IS NOT NULL

    I tried to remove the single quotes of my column and that does make a difference. Any help is appreciated.

    It's a good first step. Literals are enclosed in single quotes are not identifiers (including the column names). "fccpdate" is the literal string of 8 characters containing 'f', ' c; Another 'c', 'p' 'd', 'a', 't' and 'e'. " fccpdate (without the single quotes) can be the name of a column.

    If fccpdate is a string, as July 18, 2012', then you can convert it to a DATE using TO_DATE.

    TO_DATE (fccpdate, 'DD-MON-YYYY')
    

    If you want to display a DATE in a particular format, use

    TO_CHAR ( d
            , f
            )
    

    where d is a DATE, and f is the format string. In this case, d is perhaps the TO_DATE expression above

    TO_CHAR ( TO_DATE (fccpdate, 'DD-MON-YYYY')
            , 'MM/DD/YYYY'
            )
    

    I hope that answers your question.
    If not, post a small example data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements) for all of the tables involved and also publish outcomes from these data.
    Explain, using specific examples, how you get these results from these data.
    Always tell what version of Oracle you are using.
